We spent Thanksgiving with my family this year, since it was the Petzinger’s year for Christmas. It was a quick weekend trip, but pleasant, as always. This year, Mom invited one of her right hand men from the shutter shop, Hedy, so he could experience a good ol’ American Thanksgiving for the first time. We had an early dinner (11 am—I guess you should call it “brunch”) so Curt & Shae could make their flight to NYC. They made a special trip for the Manhattan Temple wedding of a girl Curtis taught on his mission in Jamaica. That is something very special that very few returned missionaries get to experience.
We had much to be grateful for this Thanksgiving…
Good Health – Dad had no sign of the cancer returning
The return of John & Raquel to Boise (from Seattle)
Good Employment –
Uncle John’s business has taken off after SO much hard work & dedication
&
Ben had a project here in the valley to keep him home!
Two new healthy and beautiful nieces – Tawny and London
Beautiful girls Alecia (niece) and Alex (stepsister) successfully off to college
The sale of our CO home – FINALLY
Good Friends here in Idaho that make being away from family bearable
Fun Family Trips –
Moab & Goblin Valley; Genesee, ID; 4th of July Fun; Zermatt; Lake Powell; Alturas
Great school years for the boys
It has been a good year and, as always, look forward with grateful hearts to the coming year. Happy Thanksgiving.
